cultivars which was suggestive of greater capacity of Ak<br />

in controlling Na + . Tolerance of salt stress is greater in Ak<br />

cultivar than that in Ou and Ka cultivars and the<br />

difference might be due to different salt-tolerance<br />

mechanisms. Higher plant growth and photosynthetic<br />

pigments, lower Na and Cl content, greater accumulation<br />

of soluble sugars and K could explain the greater salttolerance<br />

of Ak compared to that of Ou and Ka.<br />
